  1. Prayers

    Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
    Bless the bed that I lie on
    There are our corners on my bed
    There are four Angels on them spread
    Two at my feet, two at my head
    And two to carry my soul to Heaven.
    As I went out to view the Blessed Land
    I met the Blessed Virgin
    With seven Mass books in her hands
    Seven hymns a singing
    With seven bells a ringing
    Open the gates of Heaven
    And close the gates of Hell
